RE: [PHP-DB] Re: Moving from MySQL to MSSQL Server 2000

Fail Over is not for when the cluster is too busy, it's for when the server dies, or when someone killed it's power, or when you loose your network, or when you get a blue screen (assuming you are on windows :). Then, in about 30 seconds the cluster will do a fail over to the 2nd node and the site will continue to work as if nothing happens... it's pretty amazing to see this in action :) -----Original Message----- From: Manuel Lemos [mailto:mlemos@acm.org] Sent: Sunday, January 13, 2002 11:38 PM To: php-db@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] Re: Moving from MySQL to MSSQL Server 2000 Hello, Boaz Yahav wrote: > My main problem is that MySQL is not "Cluster Aware". > I never heard of a MySQL server being able to perform a "Fail Over" to > another node. > > Did you? I never used MySQL in a cluster myself, but AFAIK, if it would not do fail-over, what good a cluster would be for when a cluster server is too busy? I think you should address these questions directly to MySQL AB.
